Asking questions which have nothing to do with the points at hand then saying 'that's all I wanted to know' when you get an answer you already...
No, I was only establishing him as a better fighter than Craig Cummings & Dean Williams and the other type of guys you were trying to group him...
Never said i did. I said the judges did and have no reason to doubt that they recognise an easy one-sided fight when they see it, even if you...
I see no evidence for it in boxing history and I don't think good fighters suddenly fall into an existential quagmire when they lose one...
He is shite. He's shite enough to lose every round to Mikel Kessler. But less shite than the type of bums Kessler was 'violently KOing', save...
Results: Kessler TKO 12 Scorecard 1: 110-98 Scorecard 2: 109-99 Scorecard 3: 109-99 I didn't see it and hence had no opportunity to project...
Again, that's your perception. It isn't based on any facts, whatsoever. Just like your idea that Hatton would have beaten Lazcano & Pauli more...
The judges did.
Sartison has lost one fight in 28 & is now a world title holder. It's one of Kessler's 4 or 5 best wins.
In Cardiff, at a weight Hopkins had never fought at before. Shame it didn't happen because Hopkins certainly would have won. But it was hardly...
He KO'd an unbeaten guy and lost 1 of 11 rounds on 2 cards and sweeped them on the other. :dunno:
You brought up RJJ in the context of Joe's performance against him and in that post said he was a level above Ward.
If this is a reference to the showtime 2002 offer Hopkins received, I believe that was actually mooted for Cardiff.
And came back to record by far his career best win.
Calzaghe - BOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Pretending to be scared of airplanes was.
Well then you're arguing with 100 years of boxing history.
Not particularly. It just adds to our projections of quality onto him.
My point is saying Joe didn't need a super 6 to prove he was better than.......Sven Ottke, doesn't really say much for him.
Pundit airtime-fill hot air. As many fighters were made better from the motivation of their first defeat. More than were effected either way came...
Losing one fight where you don't take a serious beating doesn't suddenly make you worse.
He won every single round. Then dominated Pauli Mallinagi, similarly. If he was diminished it was mainly in our perceptions.
Well most people thought he was probably better than Sven Ottke, yeah. Not with searing conviction but most of us thought he was a shade better.
I've been saying I consider Ward at least the equal of Calzaghe for ages. He just is, he keeps showing it with comfortable wins over opponents...
Can i just remind fightbeat that the fact somebody is 'unbeaten' & then isn't unbeaten after that means FUCKING NOTHING, in itself. Literally not...
It's a 50/50 fight
Hell no.
Kessler-Froch was razor close. Froch is an all round & more accomplished supermiddleweight than Kessler & in terms of ability they're clearly...
Calzaghe wouldn't have beaten any of Ward's recent opposition as comfortably as Ward has and there isn't a Calzaghe opponent Ward wouldn't have...
Froch would be Calzaghe's best supermiddleweight win.
